Thankful

When you see me and tears are falling from my eyes

its because I'm thankful, thankful

and you see me dancing around and you're wondering why

(It's because I'm thankful) it's because I'm thankful

For when I think about your goodness

And all the ways you've made for me

I did nothing to deserve it

It's just you keep blessing me

And without your tender mercy

I don't know where I would be

Makes me say I'm thankful, (to everything you've done Jesus) thankful

I'm thankful (anybody in this room tonight)

It's because I'm thankful (listen here)

When I remember where I was and where I am right now

It makes me say I'm thankful, thankful (listen)

The lord lifted my hands when I felt like throwing in the towel

Lord that's why I'm thankful (lord that's why I'm thankful)

Cause you were not there when my life was hurting but somehow god he brought me though (yes he did)

And what the enemy meant for my evil god you turned it around for my good

And there never was a moment when you left my there alone

Ooo that's why I'm thankful (any thankful people in this room today?) thankful

(I'm so thankful) it's because I'm thankful

(For the times you've stood by me) for the times you've stood by me

(When all around) when all around I walked away

And the sins I committed against you Jesus

Because of the blood lord you forgave me

(Thank you lord) thank you lord for every blessing, and new mercy every day

Thankful (yes lord I am) thankful

(I need to know how many thankful people are in this room can say I'm thankful)

(If you're really thankful come on someone tell him again) it's because I'm thankful, thankful

(Come on tell him) it's because I'm thankful

Thankful [13x]

It's because I'm thankful
